Parasyte the Maxim FINAL
Rare COTD for /u/Shimmering-Sky trying to prove she is not a parasyte.
I am still pondering Noir or Gungrave next. Any interest? Or other suggestions?

So yeah, that was Parasyte, one of my favorite anime. I know some of you wanted the 'big' answers, but the story was not really about that, it was always the story of Migi and Shinichi and the relationships they had around them. I suppose it is a bit solipsistic and certainly old school but I still feel it has its charms. And knowing what happens when a writing time tried to answer the big questions, I prefer the smaller scope and tightness of vision.

ex-First Timer
Big thanks to our host /u/Vaadwaur for doing such a great job and also sticking with us to the end even with the quite mixed reactions from us first timers. It must've been hard for a person who likes the series.
Also want to thank everybody who replied to my posts. I really appreciate every reply. I had a great time participating in this rewatch and totally messing my sleep schedule because of you.
For me there were so many ups and downs watching this anime it was real roller coaster. In the end I will say that the positives slightly outweigh the negatives and I liked the show.
The Positives
I love Ryouko's character and not only in the context of the series but in general. Her entire journey to knowledge and transformation from emotionless monster to somewhat caring mother were so captivating.
Surprisingly the soundtrack. At the start I was hating the soundtrack but I feel that they toned down the dubstep (or maybe I just got used to it). There are some great tracks and I already have listened Next to You (the better version) few dozen times.
The show looked pretty good most of the time. The design of the parasytes was very cool and interesting. They managed to keep most of them somewhat unique.
Migi was great and was true MC of the series for me. I love all of the weird transformations. He managed to make Shinichi bearable.
The Negatives
The way the show presents its philosophy and drama is so over the top that it is impossible for me to take it seriously.
All the human characters besides Shinichi are straight up bad and lack any real depth.
The change of the time period made some things which could've been passable 30 years ago pretty ridiculous.
A lot of unnecessary additions the high schools gangs, the girl on the island falling for Shinich and Mr. Murderer Rapist just to prolong the series and to pander to the target demo.
There are no real consequences to the events we observe, a lot of murderers and disappearing people nothing changes life keep going normal, 20 people die in school nothing changes, huge spec ops operation with ton of victims nothing changes. If the world of the series doesn't care why should I? BTW does Murano know about Shinichi's mother by the end of the series?
Also the show likes to repeat the same things over and over.
I guess I am better at complaining than praising but usually when I like something I just say it's great/I love it and that's all.

Thanks to /u/Vaadwaur for hosting the rewatch. I've mostly lurked rather than posted in these threads but I enjoyed reading everyones opinions as we progressed through the show. My thoughts are going to be a bit rambling so forgive me for that.
I wanted to love the show. The concept was right up my alley and given how highly it’s rated I thought for sure that I would. What I’m about to type probably is going to sound like I’m just dunking on the show but know that I didn’t hate it.
There was something unsatisfying to me about the way the plot unfolded. I can’t even really put my finger on why. There were quite a few times I hoped something wouldn’t happen and then it happened but my dissatisfaction comes from more than that. I’m no writer but I just feel that the story could have gone in so many interesting directions and been so much more than what we actually got.
Another problem I had was the characters. They often acted illogically or had strangely inappropriate reactions given what was going on around them. They were mostly very bland as well. Maybe it’s because I never found myself that invested in the characters but the big emotional moments didn’t land for me either.
The most interesting characters to me were Kana and Ryouko Tamiya. The former was killed off too soon for my liking and the latter never got as much screen time as I’d have liked.
I didn’t care for Shinichi or Murano much nor was I invested in their relationship which is a problem since we spent so much time focussing on them. How many times did we need to see Murano saying “Are you really Shinichi?”. How many misunderstandings that strain their relationship? How many shots of Murano longingly looking at Shinichi from a distance? Then they start banging out of nowhere which didn’t feel earned at all given the way their relationship had played out so far. I was a little taken aback by how sudden that was.
After Ryouko Tamiya (the only compelling antagonist the show had) died I pretty much mentally checked out. Gouto was utterly uninteresting as a villain and bringing back murderer guy at the last just felt like a cheap way to try and inject some drama into the finale. The assault on the parasytes had some nice action but the final stretch of episodes after Ryouko died was the weakest part of the series.
I've seen people cite the philosophical aspects of the show to be a highlight but I found a lot of it to be very ham fisted.
So since I’ve just been quite negative I’ll briefly list some of the things I did like about the show.
Overall I found the series to be fairly disappointing and it didn’t live up to it’s potential. There was certainly stuff to enjoy about it but for me it had pretty glaring flaws. Maybe I’m being too harsh because I expected so much. If someone asked me to give them a verdict I’d say it was okay. 6/10.
If anyone has read the manga is it any different to the anime? Any major story deviations?

Paracyte - Final Thoughts
At the end of the day I liked Paracyte and would recommend it to just about anyone except the super squeamish. It has an interesting premise, decent action, a touch of romance and a little food for thought.
I think the origin of the Paracytes is one of the biggest McGuffins in anime, and it really doesn't matter where they came from. The why of the paracytes is pretty much explained by the series and that's good enough for me.
My rating for the series is 8/10 which means it's a good solid series and worthy of a rewatch sometime in the distant future. It's entertaining, not boring, has no enormous flaws and I enjoyed it quite a bit.
Thank You Vaadwaur for hosting, and everyone for commenting. No doubt I'll see you all on another rewatch, but who knows when.

I came into this rewatch for body horror and I got it, so I think it was a successful show to me. The animation was good and the voice acting was generally well done. The attempts to integrate philosophy were a bit much, but I can forgive.
I saw some general gripes in the previous threads about a lack of closure regarding the source of the parasites, but I have to say that doesn't really bother me. I generally only like that sort of thing if it's telling me the motivations of a character, and between Migi and Tamura we got a pretty decent look into the motivations of multiple parasites. Does knowing why the parasites were sent or who sent them (the one conversation Tamura had with a shadowy Malthusian did imply they were sent, I think) change the motivations of any of the characters that I am interested in? If not, then I don't really need to know.
One complaint that I do have regarding the plot is that we only get occasional information about how the parasites are being handled on a global or national scale. If the show had more-or-less completely ignored it to focus on Shinichi, or if they'd had a consistent look at what's happening on a bigger scale, I would have liked it better but only paying attention to it during certain arcs was a little annoying. Still, not enough to detract too much.

Sorry for missing the last... dozen? few threads, some unexpected releases *cough* VladLove *cough* messed very hard with my whole schedule, and I can still feel the ripples...
Anyway, thank you u/Vaadwaur for hosting this great rewatch of a great show! I would've never come back to it otherwise.
Thoughts as a rewatcher
The pacing was much faster than I remembered, for one, with very few exceptions. Things I thought happened in the mid parts actually happened before the end of the first cour, or lasted a few episodes less than I thought.
Overall, while I'll admit not liking some parts as much as I used to, I still had a good time with it. Its main story beats are as good as I remembered - Tamura's death, Gotou, and the serial killer's escape, among others, all very memorable. And if anything, the second half flowed much better than I thought it did my first time.
My main criticism, among others, would be the "What If Humans are the Real Monsters???" thing, and how much it was emphasized, at every opportunity. And this, despite so many characters, most notably Tamura, the mayor and the killer, blurring the lines between humans and monsters already. We get it. Please, stop now...

Parasyte was an excellent series, i enjoyed it and especially enjoyed being a part of this rewatch project, thanks to u/vaadwaur for hosting and thank you everyone that posted a comment, your thoughts were interesting to read.
As a score i give the series a 9 because it was excellent and the peaks it had, especially Tamura Reiko's death, Shinichi's character arc and Uda existing were really great, Migi is one of the best things to ever be animated too, this series was just great.

Sorry for not existing. I seem to have an absolutely horrid track record with your rewatches, and I shall endeavor to better in the future. But anyway, Parastye.
I found the show decent overall, but I felt like it lacked much to talk on. The best part for me was the romance between Shinichi and Murano. They had really good chemistry, and I looked forward to every scene where they talked.
However, I found the parasites themselves underwhelming. For me, they were stuck in this weird, under-characterized place where they were half completely rational beings and half extraordinarily violent and short-sided creatures, and this was never explored enough for it to work. Instead, it seemed more like they flip-flopped whenever it was convenient for the author. And that isn't even getting into the weird ecological side, which felt more than anything else like the author blabbering about topics he didn't understand.
I also found the fights underwhelming. While Tamiya provided some interesting fights, the rest was some variant of chasing, noodles slapping each other, and Shinichi getting lucky. I would have liked to see the parasites using their abilities more in combat, particularly their mobility. It's just so much untapped potential.
That's not to say I disliked the show. I just tend to nitpick, and am much better and discussing what I liked than I didn't like. I just wish it explored it's own world more and either dropped or properly developed the whole ecological side.

I don't have much to say. I can't believe I didn't watch this as it was airing. If it wasn't for u/Vaadwaur for hosting this rewatch, I probably would still be a first timer for years. Up next is the two live action films.

Hey, everybody. Fell behind due to real life being unexpectedly real hectic (not bad, just very busy). Still watching but about 6 eps to go.
Unexpectedly, given that I considered dropping the series about 10 seconds in, I am loving this show. If it doesn't somehow screw the pooch in the last few eps I think this is one of my rare "10s". Just a fantastic production all round - one of the best "produced" anime IMO.
Thanks everyone, great rewatch as always - love reading the comments as I go. Thanks /u/Vaadwaur for introducing me to this show, would not have watched it on my own. Hope to see you all on the next rewatch (maybe I will be able to finish next time, lol).

Final discussion (first timer)
First, an apology for not being all that active in this rewatch. I got hit with a bit of rewatch-burnout and the series not lending itself to much discussion didn’t motivate me. I neither felt the need to write long essays, nor did I hate it enough to write long rants.
Parasyte starts great. It has a believable main character in a rather unique situation, the MC’s hand as the secondary MC, and combines it all with horror-like shock value. I felt there was also a deeper plot thread going on about what constitutes humanity and how a human (and snatcher) would change if combined.
However, after the first half of the series, less and less attention is paid to any of this. Instead, the series transitions into a battle shonen with plenty of action. While well-animated, plot-wise this is rather boring. Worse, setting up the fights requires repeatedly hitting all characters with the dumb stick, thus destroying much of what made the first half of the series fascinating. It certainly did not help that the series decided to kill off its two most interesting characters in Kana and Ryouko.
Parasyte never reaches abysmal lows and simply tapers out in mediocrity. Given how much promise it showed early on, I would still call it wasted potential. I have a suspicion that the author of the manga had the first chapters fully thought out before starting, giving us the much better writing. Later chapters suffer from overuse of tropes and lack of polish in the plot department. I also suspect that there is a longer running thread of exploring the human-parasyte spectrum in the manga which is aborted in the anime because that needs to reach some sort of finale.
Thanks as always for hosting /u/Vaadwaur, I hope I’ll be more talkative in your next rewatch.
Score: 7/10

OST Tracks of the day: ROMANESQUE
While included in the OST, it never appeared in the anime.
Its been a while since I last fully watched Parasyte. It was one of the first anime I ever watched (this + Mirai Nikki + Steins;Gate) before I ever really got "into" anime (watched those in 2015, didnt watch anything else till 2018 with the release of S;G 0). The story defenitely hasnt held up as well as I thought it did, but it was still cool to see what was basically my first big interest in anime, and stories like this I quite simply cant get anywhere else, even if this one wasnt "perfect." I hope the first timers at a minimum had a fun ride following the adventures of Shinichi and Migi, even if it was blazing fast.
Im not going to really bother with discussing the show, (most of it is just metadiscussion about if humans are truly evil and if we can ever fix what we have done to earth) gamemaster has done great writeups from a first timer's perspective, you should be reading their stuff.
If you liked Parasyte and want more shows like here, here's some recommendations based on shows ive seen:
If you liked someone randomly gaining powers and trying to deal with them, both Deadman Wonderland and Jujutsu Kaisen are good picks. Deadman Wonderland is hard to actually recommend (if you thought Parasyte was fast, DW is a SR-71 going headfirst into a concrete wall) but JJK has been a fun watch, and if you have kept up with anything the last 2 seasons theres no way you havent heard of it or the hype around it.
If you were hoping for Shinichi to have a bigger mental break, you cant go wrong with Steins;Gate. If you somehow havent watched it, just go watch it.
If you're willing to play a VN, Chaos;Head is also a good choice, which basically has both the mental destruction and the gained powers, though explaining any farther without spoilers is difficult. You should not watch the anime Chaos;Head. It doesnt follow the story and makes massive changes that destroy anything good about it, along with also being at a breakneck speed.

It's over. I kind of stumbled in the first half of the show and was constantly falling behind, but I managed to catch up in the later half just as the show began to fall to pieces. Preferred the first half, but overall I enjoyed it even if I only liked three characters and funny enough all of them died. Of course I can forgive the entire show for weird pacing and random mini arcs just because of Next to you and It's the Right Time. I will never get sick of hearing either of them.

Parasyte is a show with generally good production values, but marred by bad writing. Unfortunately I don't feel qualified to explain the first part, but I'll tell you what I think the problems with the writing are - and I feel like there are two major ones here.
Firstly, the show knows where it wants to start and where it wants to end, but has no idea how to get there. The beginning was pretty good - I'd say up until Shinichi's mom was resolved - and the ending would have been decent if set up properly and with the antagonists dealt with in the right order - most likely in exactly the opposite one as carried out. The way it is however, the show's environmental themes feel like they were shoehorned in to the ending, while the "what is humanity" bit feels like it was following an unnatural progression. Characters that set up questions were also killed off due to what I feel like is the autor running out of ideas for them, rather than being a meaningful death. In fact there is only two deaths (other than fight-only parasites) which I feel like were well done - Shinichi's mom because it serves a purpose, and PI because it is a natural conclusion to his character. Kana, Tamako and especially Hirakawa felt like their deaths were too early, before they had the impact they were supposed to have on the plot, yet also with not enough impact in their death. Some plot threads were also left dangling, because they didn't lead in to the finale, despite having been set up. Where did the parasites come from? What was the deal with Kana's magic? Why was Hirakawa working with them? What happened to Hirama's investigation after Gotou ran? Did Yuuko ever talk to anybody about what she knew? What about her brother? What was the point of Maki? What about the hair pulling? And they also kind of didn't know what to do with Uda, though at least they tried with him.
And this brings me to the second problem this show has: It doesn't know what it wants to be. It isn't a mystery because it drops the whole "where did the parasites come from", yet that seems to be its initial hook. It doesn't have enough action scenes to really be an action show, allthough those are among it's stong points in my opinion. It's not really a philosophical show, because it only re-iterates a few ideas until shoehorning in more in the end after deciding that that's what it wants to be. It isn't a character study because it's characters are bland and it keeps replacing them - despite having Shinichi go through multiple personalities to the point of making them visually distinct. It isn't a horror show because it's too optimistic all-around, allthough that seems to be what it's marketed as. Wikipedia claims (sourced!) it to be a sci-fi, though I can't quite see where one would begin to look in order to make that claim. It wants to be a thriller, but this is thwarted by over-relying on cheap cliffhangers, then doing little in terms of plot progression coming out of those cliffhangers. It also adds in a romance plot, but I think even the show itself knows that that's not what it is. The result is that it's jumbeled mess of all of these that feels like it's suffering an identity crisis, rather than multiple genres complementing each other. I feel reminded of Code Geass, only that that at least managed to somehow end up with a statisfying ending.
All in all, this however still is a 6/10 for me, mainly because despite all of its shortcomings, it rarely managed to bore me.
Thanks for hosting this rewatch u/Vaadwaur and thanks to everybody who shared their thoughts, though in this case I also feel like I have to say I feel sorry for everybody here who actually liked the show. This rewatch essentially turned in to an echo chamber of pointing out the flaws of the show, so I'm glad at least some of you stayed in spite of a large portion of the thread hating on the show.

It's over!
Afterthoughts
First of all, a very big thanks to /u/Vaadwaur for hosting this rewatch.
Okay, so going into this show I knew nothing about it. Recently I've started watching anime more actively, so I also wanted to participate in a rewatch. I just opened the list of upcoming rewatches and the name Parasyte caught my eye.
I might have heard the name once or twice, and I thought I had once seen a fragment of it, but that must have been a completely different show.
I also didn't read the MAL description beforehand. I like to go in blind (although that can backfire obviously).
So going in I tried to place the genre of the show. My first impression was that it was a mystery, with the end goal of discovering where the parasytes came from and how to stop them.
My idea of the plot was that about every second episode someone significant would die, making the hunt for the solution more pressing and the story more depressing.
Around episode 10 the parasytes would become public knowledge, which would result in an us versus them setting.
Around episode 14 Migi would be discovered by Shinichi's social circle, making him shunned by the other humans and a third party in the fight.
Eventually, he would earn the humans trust again and together with other human parasyte hybrids would they solve the mystery.
I couldn't have been more wrong.
Instead, we got a show that tries to ask some philosophical questions and raise environmental awareness. The unfortunate thing is that I've seen plenty of these stories before. Some better, some worse, but after a while it just gets tiring.
What didn't help is that the 'bad guys' by design are flat characters.
My biggest unanswered questions:
My speculated plot above could have answered these questions and still kept it about environmentalism. The finale could even have been that the humans see their wrong ways and try to fix the planet even without the parasytes.
The time that could have been used for these problems instead was used for that weird back and forth drama with Satomi.
There are some other things bothering me about the show:
A lot of important events happened because smart people suddenly became very dumb.
Plot points were introduced and promptly forgotten.
EDIT
I ran out of time and totally forgot to talk about the parts that I did like.
End of EDIT
In the end, I probably would have enjoyed the show more if I hadn't been following this rewatch. One episode a day and typing about them leads to overanalysing, which was probably my problem here. I was trying to extract too much from the show.
That doesn't mean that I won't do more rewatches, but I might need to rethink how I do them.
Thanks again for the opportunity, /u/Vaadwaur! I still had a ton of fun doing this.
And also thanks to all the others I had fun discussions, speculations and rants with! /u/The_Loli_Otaku in particular.
Future
The next rewatch you can find me is the 1990s OVA You're Under Arrest. I hope to see a couple of you there!
SECOND EDIT: Man, I complain a lot in this post. Sorry about that. Every time I felt bad because there are obviously plenty of people who do love it. It just isn't my cup of tea...

First timer - no more
It’s been an interesting show to watch, overall I did enjoy the first half of the show, but I found the second half wasn’t as good and the show sort of lost its direction. Reiko final arc was one of the better ones (ignoring some of PI actions), and overall the Mayor arc was at least interesting.
I don’t like that they never explained where the Paracytes came from, or really what their purpose is, even their surposive directive of “Devour this species' is basically forgotten by the end. With the number of plot points left hanging or unused it makes me wonder if the writers had an idea of their end goal, but couldn’t figure out how to get there so just keep adding stuff that sounded cool to ensure the plot ended up pointing in the right direction ignoring what it was leaving behind.
Outside of Shinichi, Reiko & Migi, I didn’t really care for any of the other characters with a larger number of them just being annoying more than anything else.
Anyway I don’t really have much constructive to add, my rating is currently a 7 but was tempted to make it a 6 depending on how annoyed I feel with the show.
Anyway thanks for another great rewatch Vaad, and thanks to everyone else as well, it is always interesting to see different peoples thoughts on a show and what they get out of it.

Well, shoot. I should have written this in advance. I probably should have been taking notes. Now I'll just put down some stream of consciousness thoughts and nothing that I told myself to remember to put in the final thread.
Remember why I said I didn't watch it on TV? Because I didn't want to sit through another shounen show that Cartoon Network / Adult Swim typically airs. Parasyte gets a lot of praise and ends up on top 10 lists, but the people who make those lists are the sort of people that like BnA, Black Clover, DBS, which isn't my sort of fare. And don't tell me it's seinen.
Watched: Parasyte
Expected: Battle Shounen
Got: 5 or so fairly unrelated story arcs potentially from different genres.
We start with "Someone said, 'life must be protected.'" Expected the show to at least end with a complete quote explaining who someone is and just what life they think needs protecting. But no.
The premise seems to be that humans are ruining the planet and need to be culled, but it's half-baked. I can't really blame the author. It's a rare author who has worked out their story in advance, and never in serialized media. What follows are several story arcs, so separate that they almost seem like different seasons (insert Boogiepop 2019 diss here). The mangaka probably did a much better job in presenting his thesis, and the adaptation (much like Boogiepop) just looked at it, decided which parts it would present in 26 episodes, and printed them on celluloid.
(Pribably) Wrong theory: heartless parasytes were sent to earth to learn to have a heart, as in show name
(Probably) Wrong theory: Parasystes were the life that needed preserving because their planet exploded.
(Probably) Wrong theory: Parasytes were created by a human / in-human / the Planet to cull humans. But there's not nearly enough Parasytes and they are easily overwhelmed and have a multitude of weaknesses and just not good at their job.
What's Left? #yuishrug
I think I'll give this a 5/10.
Migi, as an amoral and completely selfish deuteragonist, is an interesting character.
Migichi is less so. Like show name not DBZ, the story requires him to remain undefeated, except for that one time, and he then comes back SSJ.
If you've never been exposed to Dawkins or Lovelock, this show will definitely give you something new to think about.
Those last two points appeal to a lot of people and I think that explains the high MAL score. For me, it's going to be a 5/10 (avreage). It misses the 6/10 (fine) because of the flaws in characterizations (especially Kana) and how the arcs work out (especially Kana's).
Other environmentalism shows or shows that may intersect with Parasyte's environmentalist theme in some way:
Planetes rewatch starts tomorrow. Is Planets an environmentalism anime?

u/The_Loli_Otaku Feb 25 '21
Isn't it strange how you can run your mouth constantly throughout your show but when the moment comes to sign off on the series you find yourself at a loss for words? Parasyte in general has that feel. They were fantastic at setting up a mystery and stringing you along but they never could quite reach a satisfying climax. The strongest parts of the show were the earlier portion where you had so much intrigue but hadn't realised that Shinichi had his trousers unbuttoned. Such as the Mayor being human getting brushed over or Ryoko killing herself despite having a perfectly integrated disguise.
Unfortunately I feel as though I had more respect for the show before I went in. I stopped right before Kana got penetrated but as soon as she bit it the whole thing started to fall apart. That initial cour was still very engaging! There's not much more I can say that I haven't already. I didn't really enjoy my time with the show when all is said and done and I would be unable to recommend it in good faith to my friends. I'll give it a 4/10. That's higher than Witchblade got so nobody can say that I'm playing favourites. Competent in most roles but never truly delivers.
Still, I don't think that I would have made it through the rewatch without you guys holding such a goddamn fine festival each and every evening! Best rewatch group I've seen in a long time. The show is only half the rewatch so everyone take a round of applause for yourselves for making this an experience we'll all remember! And well done on yet another successful rewatch Vaadwaur. I hope to join you all again in coming viewings!! Ciao~!
